chapter 7
Medusa(3)
Sunday morning as precious as gold.
As soon as I woke up, I ejaculated Medusha.
“Please, I’m asking you to go in just once… It only takes a moment.”
“No. You do this because you don’t know how stuffy it is. Prepare a slightly more expensive card at the very least.”
Medusha, who was sitting on her bed, folded her arms and turned her head slightly.
What I had in my hand was none other than the Summoner’s Book.
Not only the students at the academy, but also the artifacts that all summoners carry.
Medusha has become my pet, so I have to put it in the book once and officially register it…
He was startled as soon as I carefully brought up the story.
It seems that the former owner, Elfriede, did something quite mean.
I persuaded Medusha over and over again.
“If you register here, I’ll take it out right away. Huh?”
It’s no wonder that Medusha is reluctant to go into books…
Once a pet has entered the book, it cannot come out again until the owner permits it.
In effect, you will be in captivity.
And most summoners only use one summon at a time due to magic issues.
Medusha, who was well aware of my magical power, sighed and tilted her head.
Where is it that even pretends to be troubled like this?
According to the preface of the pet psychology textbook, I presented him with an appropriate reward.
“I’ll offer you a tribute. What did you want?”
“A tribute? Hmmm. First, with a bird egg and a fish…”
Alright, the negotiations have begun.
Medusha, who had a bunch of snacks that came to mind, looked at my closet one last time and added an unexpected item.
“And I wish I had one of my uniforms.”
“uniform?”
but. Sometimes I want to try on different clothes.
School uniforms can be easily obtained at a clothing store near the school.
I nodded hard and opened the Summoner’s Book.
Then Medusha quickly stretched out both hands and closed them back.
“It’s prepaid.”
Apart from being highly loyal to the summoner, they do not trust the summoner.
What on earth did Elfriede, the former owner of Medusha, do?
I chewed on Princess Beltern inside and started getting ready to go out.
I don’t have any plans today, so I can go out comfortably.
Escape the academy’s grounds in the sun noticeably warmer than yesterday.
As I went through the side door to the shopping street, I saw familiar school uniforms everywhere.
It seems that there are guys who came out to play no matter what the midterm exam or anything else.
Actually, I’m not in a position to talk.
When I went straight to the clothing store and placed an order, the staff showed a slightly surprised expression.
It seems that it is not very common to match the uniforms of the summons.
Still, as if he agreed with the opinion that he needed other clothes, he began to measure Medusha without saying a word.
After spending a lot of money to choose the finest fabrics, I decided to look elsewhere until the clothes were finished.
Search for the Artifact Shop by passing the summoning beasts in front of the shop.
When I found one in a dark place and entered it, the bell hanging on the door rang loudly.
The owner of the slightly shabby shop did not take his eyes off the newspaper.
Instead, a magic cat takes the order at the checkout counter.
Most of the artifacts are expensive, so there are very few items on the shelves.
When I place an order, it comes to me from the warehouse.
“What are you looking for?”
“Capture cards. 10 cards.”
I said, glancing at the Summoner’s Book.
Inside the leather-covered book, you can freely add or remove cards for the role…
Prices and specifications vary slightly depending on the use.
What I ordered was a card to capture wild pets.
The store owner, who had overheard the contents of the order next to him, opened his eyes from the newspaper.
I turned my head slightly to look at my uniform, and frowned slightly.
The first year of the Royal Magnus Academy’s uniform shirt is black that amplifies the summer heat.
There is also an armband with the same color magic stone studded, but it was the weekend, so I didn’t bother to wear it.
I flinched slightly and the words I was expecting came out.
“You know that first-year students can’t go hunting, right?”
“It is possible for the holder of the title of earl or higher or his or her successor.”
Originally, the lower grades were not allowed to hunt wild pets for safety reasons, but…
This rule has no meaning for nobles who have A rank or higher pets.
The store owner, who found Medusha late, opens his eyes wide and nods his head.
“Oh, it was Count Elcloud. Wait a minute…”
Even the merchants outside the store recognize Medusha and me.
Rumors spread terribly quickly.
Perhaps it was thanks to the direct visit of the Duke of Beltern.
After a while, as I looked at the goods brought by the store owner, I slowly paid the price.
A little old, but no big deal.
As I was about to leave the store, Medusha was looking up at me.
I turned around again and ordered from the owner.
“One card for the finest summons.”
“All right.”
The store owner, who smiled at us, quickly walked into the warehouse.
Leave the Artifact Shop, purchase snacks, and return to the Clothing Store.
Medusha, who came out wearing the finished clothes, smiles contentedly and turns her body around.
The summer clothes for girls were less active than that of boys.
The design was based on a sailor’s uniform, so it’s not like the hem was too long.
It’s rather short, so that might be a problem.
The lower part is in the shape of a skirt, and it barely covers the upper part of the thigh.
However, since it is a one-piece shape, it will be comfortable to wear.
It’s unconventional for a uniform, but I think it’s better than the old-fashioned one.
It’s getting hotter soon, and I’d like to wear that for a few days, but… I just wanted to.
After returning to the dormitory through the scorching sun, I carefully opened the Summoner’s Book.
After adding the card I bought earlier, I respectfully looked at Medusha.
The boy sighs a little and nods his head.
“After registration is complete, you have to take it out immediately. Okay?”
“don’t worry.”
When permission was finally granted, Medusha’s body turned to light, and she was sucked into the Summoner’s Book.
The crest of the snake god engraved on the surface of the card.
A book that thoroughly analyzed his contents revealed the results.
[Snake God Summoner, Medusa.
Overall evaluation value – S rank.
Acquired skills […]
Anyway, I’ll take a look at this later.
I re-summoned him before he got ripped off.
“Come out, Medusa!”
“Um. It’s an expensive card, so it’s a little tolerable. I don’t intend to enter it twice.”
Medusha spreads across the bed with a slap sound.
I smiled bitterly and moved to my desk and started studying for the exam.
the next morning.
Faced with an unwanted Monday, I broke through the road leading to the classroom with Medusha in school uniform.
Originally, I didn’t think that it would be a big deal because I wasn’t very modest.
The eyes of the people shooting the campus were nailed to Medusha.
Seeing their reaction, I naturally felt insecure.
Was it a violation of the rules to wear a school uniform to a pet?
Arriving in a hurry to the classroom, I quickly glanced over the remaining seats.
It was a little late, so there were only vague seats left.
Still, when I picked the relatively front one, the classmate sitting in the back quickly moved to my side.
I bet he didn’t even know my name until recently.
‘It must be because of Medusa.’
As soon as I get an S-rank pet, the distance is narrowed.
After a bit of annoyance opened the space, this time another girl blocked the way out.
Still, where is it that you don’t talk to each other like you’re friendly?
The professor came in so I was afraid to pull Medusha from the seat next to me.
The virtuous professor looked at Medusha in school uniform and narrowed her eyes.
Was it also a violation of the rules?
I was wondering if I should appease Medusha even now.
An unexpected decision was made from the church side.
“El Cloud. Add 3 evaluation points. And you can skip the next task.”
It is a very positive evaluation because it is a school running at the cutting edge of the summoned water industry.
Thanks to that, I finished the lecture in a good mood, so I left the classroom behind the scenes to avoid anyone talking to me.
It is one of the roles of this academy to build various connections, but…
Those guys are too transparent inside, so it’s a burden.
Medusha, who felt the strange air, was trembling slightly.
On the way to the library, a woman approached me.
A 2nd year college student in a navy blue school uniform.
Apparently it’s the first time I’ve seen him, but his face is strangely familiar.
A beautiful woman with a calm impression quietly approaches and greets her warmly.
“Louis! You’re Count Elcloud, aren’t you?”
“Yes. I, who…”
Is it someone I’ve seen when I was a kid?
The decline of our family was unusually rapid.
After growing up, I hardly ever met other nobles…
But the next moment, I realized that my expectations were wrong.
The name the other party brought up was an unfamiliar yet familiar name.
“Nice to meet you. I’m Maria. Maria Westwall. I should have said hello sooner, but now I’m…”
“…”
When you notice the identity of the other person, you can’t control your facial expression.
I moved my legs past her before it was too late.
Surprised by my actions, Medusha quickly catches up and scolds me.
“Louis, what are you doing! You didn’t even greet me properly…”
But that didn’t last long either.
Seeing my expression, Medusha stopped talking.
I can’t even imagine what kind of face I’m making right now.
“… Louis?”
As I walked nonstop, I sat down on a bench under the shade.
It’s busy inside the library, so it’s quiet outside.
As I barely let go of the emotions that were boiling in my body, I saw Medusha squatting across from me.
I quickly picked him up and sat him on the bench.
“Louis. Why?”
“It doesn’t matter… Westwall is your mother’s surname.”
My mother who died giving birth to me.
His family was the Count of Westwall, a great aristocrat in charge of the western border.
In other words. Maria Westwall, whom I just met, is my cousin.
Of course, it doesn’t matter much because we didn’t even know each other’s faces.
No, it shouldn’t have been a big deal…
My heart just hurts
In my heart, I just wanted to shout it out.
As soon as her mother died, she completely cut off the kite.
What kind of greeting is it now to the subject that my father often ignores even if he ejaculates for help?
It would have been easier if I had stared at it from afar.
My mother died giving birth to me, so they have the right to hate me.
The Royal Magnus Summoning Academy is a place where nobles from all over the country gather.
It’s natural to go to the same academy, but… I hope we don’t run into each other as much as possible.
I got up from my seat, thinking earnestly as if praying.
“I’m sorry. Let’s go.”
“Ugh… The next lesson is summoning combat skills? It’s time to show our skills once again.”
I’m just thankful for Medusha who smiles awkwardly.
I took a deep breath and left under the shade.
